Description
The eclipse plugin has for a long time been unusable since it cannot compile correctly groovy classes that depend on external jar files (import statements). This was caused by a bug in constructing the classpath from the eclipse build path, in combination with a GroovyClassLoader issue; the latter was discussed on the developer list. Thanks to Franck for the workaround to the GroovyClassLoader problem.
Included is a patch that should get the plugin in a slightly better shape, hopefully. IMHO, the plugin really needs a good workover, but unfortunately I don't have to do it myself, and probably not the knowledge either; sorry.)
Note that I didn't include a test case, since the testcases that exists for the eclipse plugin is still not in shape for the most recent updates... (and frankly I don't have time to fix them myself).
This issue should probably be linked to issue 961 as well.
